I know…it’s the middle of winter and you don’t usually think of pumpkins but… Last fall I made pumpkin butter in the crock pot to give for gifts. (And for me too.

Food Friday {I heart marshmallows}
Marshmallows…who doesn’t love these squishy little pillows of goodness? I recently found this recipe for homemade marshmallows and had to give it a try. As a twist, I cut them in heart shapes for Valentine’s Day. What a fun little treat for your kids or as a teacher gift wrapped up with some packets of hot chocolate. Mmmm…I...

Considering we just had a snow day that week, I couldn’t resist something so bright and cheery to warm up my day! I came home and after some researching came up with a lemon...

What could be better on a cold morning than a bowl of warm, creamy oatmeal? How about some pumpkin oatmeal?! I was a big fan of Aarti Sequeira on the show, The Next Food Network Star, and I really enjoy her new show, Aarti Party. I came across an episode on my DVR recently that...
